A hit-and-run driver will be sentenced for killing a little girl walking home from a Christmas party.
Charlotte Adams, five, was dragged 25 yards beneath Emmanuel Amoah's car and would probably have survived if he had not tried to drive off.
By revving repeatedly to break free from the muddy grass verge he was on, his powerful BMW gradually sank to its axles, crushing the youngster in the process.
The 20-year-old unqualified driver finally ran away, leaving Charlotte's frantic father to attempt to rescue his daughter.
Meanwhile, others tended his wife, who was thrown through the air by the crash and severely injured.
Amoah, of Charterhouse Road, Hackney, east London, was eventually caught and at an earlier hearing at London's Southwark Crown Court admitted causing death by dangerous driving on December 15 last year.
He also pleaded guilty to five robberies committed while on the run.
